Why Washington DC’s Most Trusted Lawn Aeration & Overseeding Company

DC lawns take a beating – compacted soil from construction, heavy clay that doesn’t drain, summer heat stress, and thin spots from shade or wear. Our core aeration + overseeding program is the proven solution that transforms tired, patchy lawns into the thickest, greenest yards on the block.

We use commercial-grade core aerators that pull deep plugs (not spike aeration) to instantly relieve compaction and allow air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. Immediately after aeration, we broadcast premium tall fescue or turf-type perennial ryegrass blends specifically selected for the Washington DC climate, followed by starter fertilizer and proper watering guidance.

Best results guaranteed when done in fall (late August through October) or early spring (March–April). Most customers see dramatic thickening within 6–8 weeks.

What Our Customers Say – Real Reviews from Local Homeowners & Property Managers

★★★★★ “Hernandez Company saved my lawn! I had huge bare spots and thinning grass after years of neglect. They aerated, overseeded, and topdressed in September 2024 – now my yard in Capitol Hill is the best looking on the street. Professional crew, fair price, and they cleaned up perfectly.” – Sarah M., Capitol Hill, Washington DC (Google review, Oct 2024)

★★★★★ “Best aeration service in Northern Virginia. We’ve used big national companies before and Hernandez is far superior. They double-aerated our soccer field in Arlington and overseeded – grass came in thick and uniform. Highly recommend.” – Mike R., Arlington VA (reviewed Nov 2024)

★★★★★ “Outstanding work on our commercial property in Bethesda. The lawn was compacted and brown after construction. One aeration/overseed treatment from Hernandez and it’s completely transformed. Crew was on time, uniformed, and very knowledgeable.” – Jennifer L., Property Manager, Bethesda MD (Google review, 2025)

★★★★★ “These guys know DC soil. Heavy clay in my Petworth rowhouse yard always stayed soggy. After core aeration and overseeding with their tall fescue blend, drainage is perfect and the grass is thick and dark green. Worth every penny.” – David K., Petworth, Washington DC (2025-star review, 2025)

★★★★★ “Used Hernandez Company for fall aeration and overseeding on my large lawn in Potomac. The difference is incredible – no more crabgrass patches, just beautiful thick turf. They’re now on my speed dial for yearly service.” – Robert T., Potomac MD (Google review, 2025)
